“…The second one is the APE-INV project in the late 2000s (Lissoni 2012), to which the authors of this paper have made significant contributions, with studies of academic patenting in the UK, Italy and Spain. German data is available in the APE-INV public datasets but the time range available is limited to 2006-2007 and thus not useful for our purposes (Schoen et al 2014). Austria is also included, but for a different time period 1997-2009(Back et al 2019.…”

ww .gr e th a .f r L'impact de la suppression du « Professor's privilege » sur la qualité des brevets universitaires en Europe Résumé Les régimes de propriété intellectuelle régissant les inventions universitaires étaient très diversifiés en Europe à la fin des années '90. Plusieurs pays européens ont maintenu le « Professor's privilege », qui accordait aux enseignant-chercheurs d'université le droit d'être titulaires de brevets. Les années 2000 ont été marquées par la convergence vers un système plus homogène, dans lequel les administrations universitaires ont pris le contrôle de la gestion de la propriété intellectuelle. Nous étudions l'impact de la réforme et constatons un déclin de l'importance technologique et de la valeur des brevets détenus et gérés par des universités dans les pays qui abolissent le privilège du professeur. Au contraire, en différenciant les brevets académiques par type de propriété, nous constatons que l'importance technologique des brevets académiques détenus par des entreprises a plutôt augmenté. Notre étude produit de nouveaux résultats qui peuvent alerter les législateurs sur les éventuelles imprévues du modèle attribuant la propriété intellectuelle aux universités (« university ownership model »). Mots-clés: Brevets universitaires ; qualité des brevets; gestion des brevets; valeur du brevet; transfert de technologie The impact of the abolishment of the professor's privilege on European university-owned patents

“…In many countries, the inventors of the patents (not the universities) were seen as their owners. 2 In Germany, this legislation was in place until 2002 (Schoen et al 2014). This legislation also led to many patents being filed by enterprises, especially start-ups (Schoen et al 2014).…”

These findings suggest that when analyzing science-technology interactions, the inventor level has to be taken into account.…”

“…After both datasets were created, matching procedure was started in order to identify the overlap between the science and technology space. It is based on existing literature (Coward and Franklin 1989;Boyack and Klavans 2008;Schoen et al 2014;Neuhäusler 2015, Dornbusch et al 2013) and applies the following procedure: & 1st step-Matching was performed on the basis of identical name and surname.…”

Who shapes plant biotechnology in Germany? Joint analysis of the evolution of co-authors’ and co-inventors’ networks

The interdependence of science and technology has been of high interest for researchers from different fields for several decades now. As they represent different means of knowledge output protection, patents and research articles generally have different reasons for creation and different audiences. However, some of the inventors may be interested in making an impact on the scientific community and vice versa. This interaction between technology space (patents) and science space (articles) is especially important for high-technology fields, where both research institutions and enterprises play important roles in the innovative environment. This paper investigates the interaction between science and technology in the case of German plant biotechnology. With the help of network analysis tools, the evolution and co-evolution of co-inventors’ and co-authors’ networks for the period 1995–2015 is explored. Finally, the topics of the patents and papers from the overlap were analyzed with the help of text mining tools in order to identify the differences of topics between science/technology and their overlap. As a result, sizable differences in nature and advancement are observed between the two network types. Although the overlap between these spheres of innovative activities increased over time, the role author-inventors played in the science or technology space varied.

“…We also included patents filed in IPC, "A61B 18/2," "A61F 9/008," "A61F 9/009," "A61N 5/068," "A62D 3/17," "B22F 3/105," "B23H 7/38," "B29C 65/16," "B41J 2/455," "F21K 9/00," "F21Y 115/30," "G01C 19/66," "G01N 21," "G02B 27/48," "G11B 7/127," and "G11B 11/03" whenever the patent title contained "laser". 5 For all string matchings, a 2-gram Jaccard similarity was employed as proposed by Schoen et al (2014) for German patent data. We use a threshold of 0.8 because our sample allows for manual data checking.…”
